Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electrical detection, and in particular to a method for evaluating the contact state of a primary electrically conductive loop connection site. BACKGROUND

[0002] The butt joint block of the stator bar of a large hydro-generator is widely welded by brazing process. In the specific operation, first, a silver solder sheet is placed in the weld, and the welding site is inductively heated by a medium-frequency welding machine. When the silver solder sheet starts to melt, silver-copper welding wire is used for replenishment until the weld is fully filled. After welding, strict quality inspection must be carried out on the butt joint block site to ensure the welding reliability and the conductive cross section to meet the flow performance requirements. Such welding not only needs to ensure sufficient mechanical strength, but more importantly, the electrical connection surface must have excellent conductive performance.

[0003] Therefore, in actual quality control, in addition to observing the surface fullness of the weld, special attention should be paid to the uniformity and density of the internal solder filling of the lap joint surface. If the internal solder filling is uneven, it is easy to cause poor contact state of the connection site, causing the contact resistance to increase, resulting in local overheating and continuous temperature rise during power-on. In severe cases, it may cause the connection point to burn out, accelerate insulation aging, and even cause short circuit or discharge accidents, ultimately endangering the stable operation and power supply reliability of the generator set.

[0004] At present, the conventional weld detection method is difficult to comprehensively evaluate the brazing quality, especially the internal welding state lacks effective characterization. Similarly, there is no uniform standard for detecting the contact state of the primary electric loop connection site. In practice, loop resistance testing is often used as an auxiliary evaluation method, but the mainstream equipment on the market generally outputs a direct current of 100-200A, and the measurement accuracy is 0.1 μΩ. In short-distance copper bar lap joint and other application scenarios, the sensitivity and accuracy of such equipment are often insufficient to accurately judge the connection quality, thus limiting its effective application in practice.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions are denoted by the same reference numerals throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0025] Figure 1 A flowchart of an electrical primary conductive loop connection site contact state evaluation method provided by an embodiment of the present application, the method comprising the following steps: S1, obtaining the overlap length L1 of the connection site to be tested, and cutting test samples L2 and L3 of the same length on both sides of the base material.

[0026] In the embodiments of the present application, the overlap length L1 of the connection site to be tested is first obtained. The overlap length L1 refers to the length of the overlapping portion of the two base materials in the connection region, which is used to reflect the stress and bonding characteristics of the joint under welding, bonding or other connection methods. In order to ensure the comparability and accuracy of the test, test samples L2 and L3 of the same length need to be cut on the base material on both sides of the connection site before the connection site is tested. The lengths of the test samples L2 and L3 should be consistent with the overlap length L1, so as to compare the mechanical properties, microstructure and failure characteristics of the base material and the connection region in the subsequent analysis.

[0027] By measuring the overlap length L1 and cutting the base material test samples L2 and L3, it can be ensured that the connection region and the base material part have the same size basis in the subsequent experimental steps, which is beneficial to improve the repeatability of the experimental results and the comparative effectiveness of the data. This step lays the foundation for the subsequent tensile, shear or fatigue performance tests, and is an important link to ensure the experimental accuracy and comparability.

[0028] S2, under the same environmental conditions, a low-voltage large current is applied to the connection site to be tested and the test sample simultaneously, wherein the current is ≥1000A and the voltage is ≤12V.

[0029] In the embodiments of the present application, step S2 involves applying a low-voltage large current to the connection site to be tested and the test sample simultaneously under the same environmental conditions. Specifically, the applied current should be ≥1000A and the voltage should be ≤12V to simulate the current load under actual working conditions. The current is an alternating current with a frequency of 50Hz±1Hz to meet the operation standards of conventional power systems. The application time of the low-voltage large current is 10 to 60 minutes, and the specific time is adjusted according to experimental conditions and testing requirements until the temperature rise of each measurement point reaches a stable state.

[0030] The purpose of this step is to make the connection site to be tested and the test sample reach a stable temperature rise state under the same load conditions by applying a low-voltage large current, so as to better evaluate the thermal response characteristics and electrical performance of the connection site. After the temperature rise stabilizes, further measurement and analysis can be carried out to ensure the reliability and safety of the connection site and the test sample under real use conditions.

[0031] When evaluating multiple series connection sites, in order to ensure the synchronization and comparability of the test, the present embodiment also provides that a same large current is applied to multiple connection sites simultaneously, thereby achieving synchronous evaluation. In this way, consistent test conditions can be obtained on multiple connection sites, ensuring the reliability and consistency of the evaluation results.

[0032] S3, measure and record the temperature rise and temperature of the connection site to be tested and the test sample, and record the ambient temperature at the same time; calculate the relative temperature difference according to the calculation formula of the relative temperature difference.

[0033] In the embodiments of the present application, step S3 involves measuring and recording the temperature rise and temperature of the connection site to be tested and the test sample, and also recording the ambient temperature. During the measurement process, an infrared thermal imager is used to perform non-contact temperature measurement on the connection site to be tested and the test sample. The measurement area should be the central area of the connection site to ensure that the temperature data is representative and accurate. In order to calculate the relative temperature difference, the temperature difference is quantitatively evaluated by formula. The calculation formula of the relative temperature difference is as follows:

[0034] In the formula, and are the temperature rise and temperature of the heating point; and are the temperature rise and temperature of the normal corresponding point; is the ambient temperature of the measured device area.

[0035] This calculation formula quantifies the difference between the temperature rise of the connection point and the ambient temperature, thereby evaluating the thermal response characteristics of the connection point under low-voltage, high-current conditions. The temperature change reflects the current load and thermal performance of the connection point, providing necessary information for subsequent analysis. Furthermore, the non-contact measurement method of the infrared thermal imager ensures accuracy and safety during the experiment, avoiding the potential heat effects or measurement errors caused by direct contact.

[0036] S4, assess the contact status of the connection points based on the relative temperature difference.

[0037] In this embodiment, step S4 evaluates the contact state of the connection points based on the relative temperature difference. Relative temperature difference The size of the contact value directly reflects the thermal performance and electrical contact quality of the connection. Therefore, the contact condition of the connection is judged by the following criteria: when When the temperature rise is ≤5%, the contact condition is considered to be excellent. At this time, the temperature rise of the connection part shows a low difference, indicating that the electrical contact of the connection area is good, the heat conduction performance is normal, and the connection part can effectively distribute the current load.

[0038] When 5% < When the temperature rise is ≤15%, the contact condition is considered acceptable. At this point, the temperature rise and relative temperature difference at the connection point are moderate. Although basic connection performance can still be maintained, there may be slight contact defects or localized heat concentration. Further monitoring and optimization are needed to ensure long-term stability.

[0039] when A temperature difference greater than 15% indicates poor contact. In this case, a large relative temperature difference suggests a significant problem with the connection, which may lead to localized overheating, increased contact resistance, or potential failure risks in the connection area. Inspection and repair should be carried out as soon as possible to avoid safety hazards.

[0040] This assessment method effectively identifies the contact quality of connection points, ensuring the reliability and safety of the equipment. In practical applications, appropriate maintenance or optimization measures are taken based on different contact conditions to improve the operational stability and lifespan of the equipment.

[0041] In this embodiment, the method is not only applicable to general connection testing, but also particularly suitable for assessing the welding quality of stator bar parallel joints in large hydro-turbine generators. This method can be widely applied to various connection points, including brazed joints, copper busbar lap joints, or busbar connection points, covering the connection quality inspection of key components of hydro-turbine generators. These connection points typically bear large current loads and have stringent requirements for connection quality during operation. Therefore, accurately assessing the contact state of these connection points is crucial for ensuring the safe operation of the generator.

[0042] To further improve the accuracy and intelligence of the assessment, the embodiment also includes a step of establishing a temperature rise database for connection parts. By collecting and organizing historical test data and operational fault records, comprehensive historical reference data can be provided for the temperature rise and contact status of various connection parts. The correlation analysis of this data can not only reveal potential quality problems, but also help optimize the assessment threshold, making the assessment more accurate and enabling dynamic adjustment and optimization based on the actual conditions of different connection parts.
